    The Other Guys (2010) [Brad Pic]
    Dec 17 2025
    This week on Pic Six, we’re aiming for the bushes with The Other Guys (2010)—Adam McKay’s wildly absurd buddy-cop comedy that somehow predicted the 2008 financial collapse while making you laugh about desk pops. Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg star as the NYPD’s most overlooked detectives, two guys who accidentally uncover a conspiracy way bigger than their job titles suggest. We break down the comedy, the performances, the running jokes that shouldn’t work but absolutely do, and why The Other Guys has aged into one of the smartest studio comedies of the 2010s. Plus: favorite quotes, best bits, and why being “the other guy” might actually be the point.

We’ll talk power, peer pressure, croquet as psychological warfare, and the legendary red scrunchie that became a symbol of rebellion.Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering Westerburg High for the first time, this episode breaks down why Heathersremains wicked, quotable, and way ahead of its time.Tune in — and don’t drink anything JD hands you.
